Gentlemen:
Memorandum Rega. rdins. Conmolidating All Liq. u.o.r..0Pera, ti.0ns
I-t is proposed that as of June 50, 1960 all the liquor
operations of the Village of Nound be merged or consolidated into
one fund in the following manner.
It is recommended that two separate bank accounts be
maintained for the liquor operations {one for general and one for
check cashing). The accounts now being used for the Island Park
liquor operations can be used. At June 30th the Mound Village
Clerk will pay all the unpaid bills applicable to the Liquor
Fund (as was done at December $1, 1959), and the Village Clerk will
enter all transactions up to June ~Oth as soon as is possible. When
the Village Clerk gets all the June bills paid, a check should
be drawn for the remaining liquor fund balance and this money trans-
ferred to the separate liquor fund bank account. An inventory will
be taken at both locations at June ~0th.
A separate set of books and records will be maintained for
the consolidated liquor operations after July 1st. A full double-
entry set of books will be used which wilI enable the manager to.
prepare monthly profit and loss statements and balance sheets. In
order t o get the proper start as far as the Mound liquor fund is
concerned we will have to prepare a Mound Liquor Fund balance sheet
at June ~0th. This is necessary because the only records are the cash
receipts and disbursements records.
Separate capital investments at July l, 1960 will be
recorded on the books, and the income and expenses w ill be kept
separately la£ter July 1st. It will then be possible to pay the bonded
indebtedness out of the net r®venues of the Island Park location. The
remaining profits of the Island Park location after payment of the
bonded indebtedness, and also the net profit of the Mound location
will be separately earmarked each year for transfers as may be
determined by the future Village Councils.
It must be noted that the assets and liabilities (except
bonded indebtedness) will be intermingled after July 1st, as there
is no way to have these constantly earmarked and still have a con-
solidation of the operations. It is recommended that the liquor
warehouse be maintained at the Island Park .storage area and that all
liquor be delivered there. Requisition sheets and transfer sheets
in duplicate will bs used for transfers to the Mound location and to
the Island park on-sale department; these forms would also be used for
the transfer of any merchandise out of the Mound location. Entries
in the records will be made from these transfer sheets. Beer and
mix can be delivered directly to the Mound location if the invoices
are so marked. The manager should unify the inventory-numbering
system so that all locations use the same numbers.
It is recommended that the books and records be maintained
at..the Island Park office (excePt of course for the Clerk, s and Treas-
urer,s records). This will relieve the Village Clerk from keeping the
liquor fund books. The person keeping the books should be designated an
Asst. Clerk by the Council.(This recommendation was made by the State of
Minnesota Public Examiner,s department in their audit of the Island
Park Liquor Fund a year or two ago.) It is recommended that all
invoices for purchases and expenses be routed first through the
Island Park office for checking and OK'ing for payment and discounts.
Each invoice will be rubber-stamped with spaces for the date received,
the entry in the purchase journal and the inventory records, and
for OK, ing of the price and computations. Following is an impression
of this rubber stamp:
ENTERED IN
INVENTORIED
PRICE CHECKED BY
CONPUTATION$
CHECKED BY
PURCEASE JOURNAL
· PACE EMBER
When sll these things are done the invoices will be delivered to the
Village Clerk for payment, with special reminders regarding
discoun.ts. It is suggested that a three-copy check voucher be used.
The first copy goes to the creditor, the second copy goes to the
Island Park office as a bookkeeping copy and the third copy is kept
by the clerk for her records.
Cash Receipts.
It is recommended that the off and on sale receipts of the
Island Park branch together with a copy of the daily reports be turned
over to the Village Treasurer at regular intervals including always
the ~end of the month. The Village Treasurer will make the deposits and
will prepare the deposit slip in triplicate so the Island Park office
can be furnished with a copy in addition to having a treasurer, s copy.
The Island Park branch receipts should be turned over as they are with
the overages and shor~tages indicated rather than letting the net
overage or shortage accumulate within the register funds.
The off sale receipts of the Mound branch ~ill be handled
as they are now except that they will be deposited in the Liquor Fuud
bank account. The Island park office will be furnished a copy of the
deposit slips and daily reports.
~heck-Cashin6 Procedure
First of all, before quthorizing any specific check-cashing
procedure, the council should understand the scope of what is necessary
in check-cashing. For the first four months of 1960 total sales of
the Island park branch were $51,~88.07 which includes both off and on.
For the same period total checks cashed aggregated approximately
$77,500.00. It will be of interest to note that N.S.F. checks not yet
collected at January l, 1960 totaled $50.00, whereas at May l, 1960
they amounted to $13.00.
Both the Island Park branch and the Mound branch maintain
check-cashing cash funds of $2,h00.00 and $1,~00.O0 respectively and
both branches cash checks out of these funds. Both branches then
replenish the funds to the extent possible by trading checks for cash
within the store from daily receipts and depositing with daily receipts.
The Island Park branch maintains a separate bank account with
a $100.OO balance. Once a week it makes a deposib of these excess
checks and at the same time writes a check to cash for the same amount
on this bank ac'count in order to replenish the cash fund. I~t is
recommended that this procedure be continued by the Island Park branch
and that the Mound branch use the same procedure in the event that its
daily receipts are not la~ge enough to trade checks for cash within
the branch.
Distribution of Income and Expenses.
There should not be too many problems in regard to allocation
of income and expenses. Separate sales and cost of sales records will
be maintained and most of the expenses will be separately invoiced.
It is recommended that promotional and other discounts be allocated
to the three departments on the basis of cost of liquor sold. This
would be more equitable than on the basis of sales becaus~ of the
factor of on-sale mixed d~inks.
Internal Con troll
It is my opinion that the recommendations outlined herein
will generate sufficient internal control, and still offer an economy
of operation. The Village Clerk and T~easurer will be w~iting all
checks and making all deposits except the deposits from the Island
Park branch to the check cashing account. These deposits are offset
by immediately cashing a check to cash, so it is felt that there is
not much loss of control. Naturally, the treasurer could be designated
to perform this function, but it is my opinion that it would amount to
an inconvenience and loss of time for both employees involved.
